^3 (D)Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord?
    And who shall stand in his ^(E)holy place?
^4 (F)He who has ^(G)clean hands and ^(H)a pure heart,
    who does not ^(I)lift up his soul to ^(J)what is false
    and does not swear deceitfully.
⁵ He will receive ^(K)blessing from the Lord
    and ^(L)righteousness from ^(M)the God of his salvation.
⁶ Such is ^(N)the generation of those who seek him,
    who ^(O)seek the face of the God of Jacob.^[b] Selah

^7 (P)Lift up your heads, O gates!
    And be lifted up, O ancient doors,
    that ^(Q)the King of glory may come in.
⁸ Who is this King of glory?
    The Lord, strong and mighty,
    the Lord, ^(R)mighty in battle!
⁹ Lift up your heads, O gates!
    And lift them up, O ancient doors,
    that the King of glory may come in.
¹⁰ Who is this King of glory?
    ^(S)The Lord of hosts,
    he is the King of glory! Selah

⁵ God ^(I)has gone up with a shout,
    the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.
⁶ Sing praises to God, sing praises!
    Sing praises to our King, sing praises!
⁷ For God is ^(J)the King of all the earth;
    sing praises ^(K)with a psalm!^[a]

⁸ God ^(L)reigns over the nations;
    God sits on his holy throne.
^9 (M)The princes of the peoples gather
    as the people of the God of Abraham.
For ^(N)the shields of the earth belong to God;
    he is highly exalted!

⁴ Sing to God, ^(F)sing praises to his name;
    ^(G)lift up a song to him who ^(H)rides through ^(I)the deserts;
his name is ^(J)the Lord;
    exult before him!
^5 (K)Father of the fatherless and ^(L)protector of widows
    is God in his holy habitation.
⁶ God ^(M)settles the solitary in a home;
    he ^(N)leads out the prisoners to prosperity,
    but ^(O)the rebellious dwell in ^(P)a parched land.

⁷ O God, when you ^(Q)went out before your people,
    ^(R)when you marched through ^(S)the wilderness, Selah
^8 (T)the earth quaked, the heavens poured down rain,
    before God, the One of Sinai,
    before God,^[a] the God of Israel.
^9 (U)Rain in abundance, O God, you shed abroad;
    you restored your inheritance as it languished;
¹⁰ your flock^[b] found a dwelling in it;
    in your goodness, O God, you ^(V)provided for the needy.

¹¹ The Lord gives ^(W)the word;
    ^(X)the women who announce the news are a great host:
^{12     (Y)}“The kings of the armies—they flee, they flee!”
The women at home ^(Z)divide the spoil—
¹³     though you men lie among ^(AA)the sheepfolds—
the wings of a dove covered with silver,
    its pinions with shimmering gold.
¹⁴ When the Almighty scatters kings there,
    let snow fall on ^(AB)Zalmon.

¹⁵ O mountain of God, mountain of Bashan;
    O many-peaked^[c] mountain, mountain of Bashan!
¹⁶ Why do you look with hatred, O many-peaked mountain,
    at the mount that God ^(AC)desired for his abode,
    yes, where the Lord will dwell forever?
^17 (AD)The chariots of God are twice ten thousand,
    thousands upon thousands;
    the Lord is among them; Sinai is now in the sanctuary.
^18 (AE)You ascended on high,
    ^(AF)leading a host of captives in your train
    and ^(AG)receiving gifts among men,
even among ^(AH)the rebellious, ^(AI)that the Lord God may dwell there.

¹⁹ Blessed be the Lord,
    who daily ^(AJ)bears us up;
    God is our salvation. Selah
²⁰ Our God is a God of salvation,
    ^(AK)and to God, the Lord, belong deliverances from death.
^21 (AL)But God will strike the heads of his enemies,
    the hairy crown of him who walks in his guilty ways.
²² The Lord said,
    “I will bring them back ^(AM)from Bashan,
^(AN)I will bring them back from the depths of the sea,
²³ that you may ^(AO)strike your feet in their blood,
    that ^(AP)the tongues of your dogs may have their portion from the foe.”

²⁴ Your procession is^[d] seen, O God,
    the procession of my God, my King, into the sanctuary—
^25 (AQ)the singers in front, ^(AR)the musicians last,
    between them ^(AS)virgins playing tambourines:
^26 (AT)“Bless God in the great congregation,
    the Lord, O you^[e] who are of ^(AU)Israel's fountain!”
²⁷ There is ^(AV)Benjamin, the least of them, in the lead,
    the princes of Judah in their throng,
    the princes of ^(AW)Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.

^28 (AX)Summon your power, O God,^[f]
    the power, O God, by which you have worked for us.
²⁹ Because of your temple at Jerusalem
    kings shall ^(AY)bear gifts to you.
³⁰ Rebuke ^(AZ)the beasts that dwell among the reeds,
    the herd of ^(BA)bulls with the calves of the peoples.
^(BB)Trample underfoot those who lust after tribute;
    scatter the peoples who delight in war.^[g]
31 Nobles shall come from ^(BC)Egypt;
    ^(BD)Cush shall hasten to ^(BE)stretch out her hands to God.

^32 (BF)O kingdoms of the earth, sing to God;
    sing praises to the Lord, Selah
³³ to him ^(BG)who rides in ^(BH)the heavens, the ancient heavens;
    behold, he ^(BI)sends out his voice, his mighty voice.
^34 (BJ)Ascribe power to God,
    whose majesty is over Israel,
    and whose ^(BK)power is in ^(BL)the skies.
^35 (BM)Awesome is God from his^{[h] (BN)}sanctuary;
    the God of Israel—he is the one who gives ^(BO)power and strength to his people.
Blessed be God!

⁵ Let ^(M)the heavens praise your ^(N)wonders, O Lord,
    your faithfulness in the assembly of ^(O)the holy ones!
⁶ For ^(P)who in the skies can be compared to the Lord?
    ^(Q)Who among the heavenly beings^[b] is like the Lord,
⁷ a God greatly ^(R)to be feared in the council of ^(S)the holy ones,
    and awesome above all ^(T)who are around him?
⁸ O Lord God of hosts,
    ^(U)who is mighty as you are, O ^(V)Lord,
    with your faithfulness all around you?
⁹ You rule the raging of the sea;
    when its waves rise, you ^(W)still them.
¹⁰ You ^(X)crushed ^(Y)Rahab like a carcass;
    you ^(Z)scattered your enemies with your mighty arm.
^11 (AA)The heavens are yours; the earth also is yours;
    ^(AB)the world and all that is in it, you have ^(AC)founded them.
^12 (AD)The north and the south, you have created them;
    ^(AE)Tabor and ^(AF)Hermon ^(AG)joyously praise your name.
¹³ You have a mighty arm;
    strong is your hand, high your right hand.
^14 (AH)Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne;
    ^(AI)steadfast love and faithfulness go before you.
¹⁵ Blessed are the people who know ^(AJ)the festal shout,
    who walk, O Lord, in ^(AK)the light of your face,
¹⁶ who exult in your ^(AL)name all the day
    and in your righteousness are ^(AM)exalted.
¹⁷ For you are ^(AN)the glory of their strength;
    by your favor our ^(AO)horn is exalted.
¹⁸ For our ^(AP)shield belongs to the Lord,
    our king to ^(AQ)the Holy One of Israel.

^19 (AR)Of old you spoke in a vision to your godly one,^[c] and said:
    “I have ^(AS)granted help to one who is ^(AT)mighty;
    I have exalted one ^(AU)chosen from the people.
^20 (AV)I have found David, my servant;
    with my holy oil I have ^(AW)anointed him,
²¹ so that my ^(AX)hand shall be established with him;
    my arm also shall strengthen him.
²² The enemy shall not outwit him;
    ^(AY)the wicked shall not humble him.
²³ I will ^(AZ)crush his foes before him
    and strike down those who hate him.
²⁴ My ^(BA)faithfulness and my ^(BB)steadfast love shall be with him,
    and in my name shall his ^(BC)horn be exalted.
²⁵ I will set his hand on ^(BD)the sea
    and his right hand on ^(BE)the rivers.
²⁶ He shall cry to me, ‘You are my ^(BF)Father,
    my God, and ^(BG)the Rock of my salvation.’
²⁷ And I will make him the ^(BH)firstborn,
    ^(BI)the highest of the kings of the earth.
²⁸ My steadfast love I will keep for him forever,
    and my ^(BJ)covenant will stand firm^[d] for him.
²⁹ I will establish his ^(BK)offspring forever
    and his ^(BL)throne as ^(BM)the days of the heavens.
^30 (BN)If his children forsake my law
    and do not walk according to my rules,^[e]
31 if they violate my statutes
    and do not keep my commandments,
³² then I will punish their transgression with ^(BO)the rod
    and their iniquity with stripes,
³³ but I will not remove from him my steadfast love
    or be false to my faithfulness.
³⁴ I will not violate my ^(BP)covenant
    or alter the word that went forth from my lips.
³⁵ Once for all I have sworn ^(BQ)by my holiness;
    I will not ^(BR)lie to David.
³⁶ His ^(BS)offspring shall endure forever,
    ^(BT)his ^(BU)throne as long as ^(BV)the sun before me.
³⁷ Like ^(BW)the moon it shall be established forever,
    ^(BX)a faithful witness in the skies.” Selah

³⁸ But now you have ^(BY)cast off and rejected;
    you are full of wrath against your ^(BZ)anointed.
³⁹ You have ^(CA)renounced ^(CB)the covenant with your servant;
    you have ^(CC)defiled his ^(CD)crown in the dust.
⁴⁰ You have ^(CE)breached all his walls;
    you have laid his strongholds in ruins.
^41 (CF)All who pass by plunder him;
    he has become ^(CG)the scorn of his neighbors.
⁴² You have exalted the right hand of his foes;
    you have made all his enemies rejoice.
⁴³ You have also turned back the edge of his sword,
    and you have not made him stand in battle.
⁴⁴ You have made his splendor to cease
    and cast his throne to the ground.
⁴⁵ You have cut short ^(CH)the days of his youth;
    you have ^(CI)covered him with shame. Selah

^46 (CJ)How long, O Lord? Will you hide yourself forever?
    How long will your wrath ^(CK)burn like fire?
^47 (CL)Remember ^(CM)how short my ^(CN)time is!
    For what vanity you have created all the children of man!
^48 (CO)What man can live and never ^(CP)see death?
    Who can deliver his soul from the power of ^(CQ)Sheol? Selah

⁴⁹ Lord, where is your ^(CR)steadfast love of old,
    which by your ^(CS)faithfulness you swore to David?
^50 (CT)Remember, O Lord, how your servants are mocked,
    and how I bear in my ^(CU)heart the insults^[f] of all the many nations,
⁵¹ with which your enemies mock, O Lord,
    with which they mock ^(CV)the footsteps of your ^(CW)anointed.

^52 (CX)Blessed be the Lord forever!
Amen and Amen.

⁷ Ascribe to the Lord, O ^(I)families of the peoples,
    ^(J)ascribe to the Lord glory and strength!
⁸ Ascribe to the Lord ^(K)the glory due his name;
    bring ^(L)an offering, and ^(M)come into his courts!
⁹ Worship the Lord in ^(N)the splendor of holiness;^{[a]
    (O)}tremble before him, all the earth!

¹⁰ Say among the nations, ^(P)“The Lord reigns!
    Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved;
    he will ^(Q)judge the peoples with equity.”

¹¹ Let ^(R)the heavens be glad, and let ^(S)the earth rejoice;
    let ^(T)the sea roar, and all that fills it;
¹²     let ^(U)the field exult, and everything in it!
Then shall all ^(V)the trees of the forest sing for joy
¹³     before the Lord, for he comes,
    for he comes ^(W)to judge the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness,
    and the peoples in his faithfulness.

³ Know that ^(E)the Lord, he is God!
    It is he who ^(F)made us, and ^(G)we are his;^[a]
    we are his ^(H)people, and ^(I)the sheep of his pasture.

^4 (J)Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
    and his ^(K)courts with praise!
    Give thanks to him; ^(L)bless his name!

^5 (M)For the Lord is good;
    his steadfast love endures forever,
    and his ^(N)faithfulness to all generations.

⁵ Whoever slanders his neighbor ^(Y)secretly
    I will ^(Z)destroy.
Whoever has a ^(AA)haughty look and an ^(AB)arrogant heart
    I will not endure.

⁶ I will look with favor on the faithful in the land,
    that they may dwell with me;
he who walks in ^(AC)the way that is blameless
    shall minister to me.

⁷ No one who ^(AD)practices deceit
    shall dwell in my house;
no one who utters lies
    shall ^(AE)continue before my eyes.

^8 (AF)Morning by morning I will destroy
    all the wicked in the land,
^(AG)cutting off all ^(AH)the evildoers
    from ^(AI)the city of the Lord.
